Reconstruction of Chinese materia medica—air potato
Through the investigation of ancient literature and the sorting of modern research achievements in traditional Chinese medicine,combined with the understanding and application experience of well-known experts and scholars in the clinical and pharmaceutical fields of traditional Chinese medicine,it is concluded that air potato is mainly characterized by the follows:Its main effects include dissipating phlegm,resolving masses,eliminating goiters,clearing heat and detoxifying,cooling blood and stopping bleeding.Its biochemical indicator targets are thyroid neoplasms,high thyroid hormone and low thyroid-stimulating hormone.Modern pharmacological studies have found that its active ingredients have the functions of supplementing iodine,regulating thyroid related hormone levels,anti-tumor,anti-inflammation,etc.It has hepatotoxicity and nephrotoxicity,and the Diosbulbin B is the main hepatotoxicity component.Its clinical dosage range is 6-15 g,and should not exceed 15 g for the first time.When using it,it should be combined with"liver protecting"traditional Chinese medicine,and regularly check the liver function during the medication period,and reduce the dosage or stop it in a timely manner.In short,it is necessary to differentiate and use air potato according to different diseases or different stages of the same disease,and the dose-effect relationship between its dosage and biochemical indicator targets should be actively explored and reconstructed.
